• Original half-life and add the games does not work on windows 7 64-bit

  I recently installed some of my old games on my new computer which has windows 7 Home premium.
  I tried to run these games in compatibility mode with xp and even try 2000 and 98, but when the games begin first they ask me cd key, which I give, then hang completely.
  My features are way on what to and I can't find any answer on the internet. Help, please!

  Hi Quick_flight,

  ·         Did you install the game in trouble-free compatibility mode?

  I suggest that you try to install the game by keeping the computer in the boot and check if you are able to use the game without any problems.

  You can start Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  How to run check and clean boot if you have the problem.

  1. click on Start, type msconfig in the Start Search box and press ENTER.
  User account control permission: If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password, or click on continue.
  2. on the general tab, click selective Startup.
  3. under selective Startup, click on to clear the load Startup items check box.
  4 click the Services tab , select the hide all the Microsoft Services checkbox and then click disable all.
  5. click on OK.
  6. When you are prompted, click restart.
    
  Now, install the game in Windows XP compatibility mode and check.

  Reset the computer to start as usual

  .  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:
  .  Click Start, type msconfig. exe in the Search box of Start and then press ENTER.
  If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password, or click on continue.
  .  On the general tab, click the Normal Startup option, and then click OK.
  .  When you are prompted to restart the computer, click restart.

  Read the article for more information: How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or in Windows 7: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929135.

  If the problem persists, I would recommend that you contact the game manufacturer for more help on the issue, also check if patches are available.

  Thank you, and in what concerns:

• line of numbers under the function keys keyboard does not work after windows upgrade

  Upgrade from Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit window Ult 64 bit. Line of keyboard under func keys works not just if online using Windows Explorer, Firefox Safari n - numbers don't work - some type; other type letter k; with the SHIFT key, signs and symbols, type anything. I can get the numbers of t using my keypad and numlock. I have tried 3 keyboards.  One was a Microsoft USB 4000 ergonomic keyboard brand new and it had the same problems.  My keyboard USB wireless transmitter had the problem too.  All have the same problem. The keys are correct by using Word, Wordpad, etc.. Quick test repetition key online as well as the keys were all ok then.

  This started happening immediately after I upgraded to windows 7 ultimate.  I use a desktop HP Pavilion a6667c with 8 GB of RAM and the latest updates available for windows ultimate.   The problem occurred before and after the upgrade to service pack 1.   I noticed other people on the web posting on this problem too.    I got no error message when using Vista Home Premium 64-bit version and had installed all the latest updates him as well.

  The only solution I found to this problem is to build me a small table of characters and symbols, I can't do it, and sticking them in when I am online using one of the three browsers I use most often.   I looked at my keyboard settings and changed back and forth between American and British English British without any result.

  I'll post my problem of keyboard on HP forums as well.   Thanks for any help anyone can give me or leads.   Somewhere, I think that it is a simple problem to solve, but I searched and searched and browsed and traveled for several days to find a lot of people who have this type of keyboard problem, but no solution yet.

  I was able to solve the problem on my computer Microsoft Vista but uninstalling constant guard I had downloaded and installed with free Norton from Comcast. I got this tip on another thread and after followinging their advice, I was free to use my line of numbers/symbols of the keys even once! I was able to close my copy of the email and the character or symbol and the last sheet in Word.

• My Phlinxtogo game does not work correctly

  Original title: "C:\Program Files (x 86) \Pogo Games\Phlinx Go\PhlinxToGo.exe" __My Phlinxtogo game does not work correctly ".

  \Pogo Games\Phlinx to Go\PhlinxToGo.exe

  Hello
   
  1. what operating system is installed on your computer?
  2. What is the exact error message you get?
  3. what happens when you try to run the game?
  4. has been the work of game much earlier?
   
  There is currently no information on the compatibility of Phlinxtogo with Windows 7.
   
  However, you can perform two or three steps and check if it helps.
   
  Step 1:
   
  Once the Phlinxtogo game is downloaded, right click on the .exe file and run as administrator.
   
  Step 2:
   
  If this does not help, run the game in Windows compatibility mode and check.
   
  If none of the suggestions work, I'm afraid you must contact the manufacturer of game for a better support.

  The foot pedal RS27 and Olympus AS-5000 - work of transcription for Windows 8 or 10 (pedal does not work on Windows 7 and do not want to shell out $300 to Olympus again)

  Any help Nauru will be stuck with Windows Vista, I had to get three versions of Olympus and their pedals over the years and all they do is change the wiring or jacks, stupid as * I just like five different types.

  Desperately need to know if these pedals will work or does he know about the Sony or another software of transcription for the typist, not the dictator.

  Help.

  Hi Marvin,.

  Thank you for the quick update.

  Yes, I understand your question. However, if the programs worked with an earlier version of Windows, they can work with Windows or Windows 10 8.1 if you install programs in compatibility mode. If you access the executable file (.exe) for the game, I suggest you follow the steps provided below:

  Step 1: Download and save programs on the desktop.

  Step 2: Install the programs in compatibility mode.

  • Right click on the .exe file and click Properties.
  • Go to the compatibility tab.
  • Check the box for run this program in compatibility mode for:
  • In the list of operating systems, select Windows Vista (or any other compatible OS) .
  • Click OK.
  • Double-click the executable file to install the program and follow the instructions on the screen.
  • Restart your computer.
